  • CES 2019 Attendance Audit Summary
    ATTENDANCE AUDIT SUMMARY CES® 2019 January 8-11, 2019 Las Vegas, Nevada CES.tech Letter from Consumer Technology Association (CTA)™ 1 For over 50 years, CES® has served as a global platform for the most innovative companies to share their revolutionary technologies with the world. This year we were proud to convene members of the industry from 161 countries, regions and territories to experience the future through technology. Featuring impressive debuts in 5G, artificial intelligence, transportation and more, CES 2019 showcased how technology enables every business to succeed. This year, we added an area on resilience to showcase technologies that can help society stay connected and safe. A new health care track also provided medical professionals with CME credits. We are pleased that the audit concluded that CES 2019 attracted 175,212 in total attendance. This number compares to 182,198 in CES 2018 and the high of 184,279 at CES 2017. This result is in line with our strategy of managing attendee numbers and attracting the most highly qualified attendees. This strategy is aimed at helping limit hotel price increases and the pressure on travel to and around Las Vegas during CES. While CES attracted government leaders from around the world, many members of the U.S. government were not able to attend due to the government shutdown. Thanks to the support of our exhibitors, CES continues to grow exhibit space, expanding to an incredible 2.9 million net square feet in 2019. As more businesses embrace technology, we are excited to welcome the next generation of diverse and visionary innovators.

External Editor: Marc A. Rosen Received: 27 August 2014; in revised form: 2 November 2014 / Accepted: 5 November 2014 / Published: 12 November 2014 Abstract: Greenhouse tomato cultivation plays an important role in Sicily, being the primary production area in Italy, due to its favorable pedo-climatic conditions that permit extra-seasonal productions. In Sicily, more than half of greenhouse tomato production is derived from the Province of Ragusa on the southeastern coast, where especially cherry tomato typologies are cultivated. Over the last decade, the Ragusa Province has registered a decrease both in terms of greenhouse tomato area and harvested production due to several structural problems that would require restructuring of the tomato supply chain. Thus, since recognition of real costs and profitability of tomato growing is a vital issue, both from the perspective of the farm, as well as from that of the entrepreneur, the aim of this paper was to analyze the economic sustainability of Sicilian greenhouse cherry tomato cultivated in the Ragusa Province.

  • European Cherry Fruit Fly Rhagoletis Cerasi
    Stone Fruit Commodity-Based Pest Survey European Cherry Fruit Fly Rhagoletis cerasi Introduction While the European cherry fruit fly has not yet been found in the United States, elsewhere in the world it has become an economically damaging pest to cherry crops. The pest has evolved genetically and it can be found in two different “races,” demonstrating its unique ability to adapt. The most significant threat for the United States is its presence in mainland Europe, including Austria, Italy, Portugal, southern France, southern Germany, Spain, and Switzerland. Biology European cherry fruit fly adults (Figure 1) are active from late May to early July during hot, dry conditions. Adults must feed to mature sexually and can be found feeding on honeydew as well as sugary excretions from aphids. Males establish territories on fruit and defend them while awaiting the arrival of females for mating. Females begin laying eggs in mid-June and insert them individually beneath the skin of ripening fruit. After 1 to 2 weeks, eggs hatch, and then larvae feed on developing fruits for approximately 4 weeks. Larvae then move to the soil where they pupate beneath the surface. Pupae can remain in this stage from 1 to 3 winters. This pest produces one generation each year. Symptoms FIGURE 1. Female European cherry fruit fly (Rhagoletis cerasi) on a cherry. The fruit tissue around the scars where European cherry Photo courtesy of R. Coutin, Office Pour les Insectes et Leur Environnement (OPIE). fruit flies lay their eggs can become soft and brownish (Figure 2). Fruit damaged by larvae often rots.

  • Hong Kong Fresh Fruits Product Brief
    THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY Voluntary - Public Date: 8/23/2018 GAIN Report Number: HK1823 Hong Kong Post: Hong Kong Fresh Fruits Product Brief Report Categories: Product Brief Fresh Fruit Approved By: Alicia Hernandez Prepared By: Annie Lai Report Highlights: Hong Kong is a dynamic market and an effective re-export platform of fresh fruits encompassing US$2.6 billion of gross imports and US$1.6 billion of re-exports in 2017. With zero tariffs on fruits and most agricultural products, efficient customs procedures, and transparent food regulations, market access is easy and new varieties and suppliers are always present in the market. As the third- largest supplier of fruits to Hong Kong by value, the United States needs to stay competitive and expand market share by offering innovative products, maintaining superiority in quality, and educating the market on how U.S. products stand out from their competitors’. Page 1 of 16 SECTION I. MARKET OVERVIEW Hong Kong is ranked as the fifth-largest U.S. fresh fruits export market by value. Fruits from the United States generally enjoy a good reputation among Hong Kong consumers. Besides fruits from the United States, Hong Kong people consume a variety of fruits from around the world. Alongside changes in consumers’ lifestyle and an increase in health awareness, Hong Kong people demand new varieties and expanded options in addition to established items like apples, oranges, and bananas. Seasonality, nutritional values, and innovative aspects matter more as access to information is easier via mobile phones and social media.

  • EU-28 Stone Fruit Annual 2018
    THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY Required Report - public distribution Date: 8/24/2018 GAIN Report Number: SP1820 EU-28 Stone Fruit Annual 2018 Approved By: Jennifer Clever, Agricultural Attaché Prepared By: Carmen Valverde, Agricultural Specialist Report Highlights: EU-28 production of peaches and nectarines in MY 2018/19 is estimated at 3.5 million MT, 12 percent lower compared to the previous campaign due to unfavorable weather conditions in most of the major producing countries. Total cherry production in MY 2018/19 is projected to grow to 793,058 MT, a 30 percent increase compared with last season. This increase is supported by expected strong growth in Poland and Germany. The value of EU-28 stone fruit exports continues to decline as a result of the 2014 Russian embargo imposed on agricultural and food products, including stone fruit, from the European Union. During MY 2017/18, EU imports of U.S. cherries increased significantly, valued at $ 9.4 million, and reinstated the United States as the fourth largest non-EU supplier of cherries. 1 Disclaimer: This report presents the situation and outlook for stone fruit including peaches, nectarines and cherries in the EU-28.

This physiological disorder leads to severe economic losses, which can be more or less effective depending on the cracked region of the fruit: in the cheeks (side cracks), in the stylar scar region, or in the stem cavity region. Sweet cherry cracking can be affected by several factors such as cultivar, growing conditions, rootstock, fruit size, flesh osmotic potential, cuticular characteristics of the skin, and stage of fruit development. In this sense, the objective of this work was to evaluate the cracking incidence in two sweet cherry cultivars (Early Bigi and Lapins grafted on “Saint Lucie 64” rootstock) and correlate the cracking index with other quality parameters.
